More than 3,500 years ago, one of Antiquity’s most remarkable civilizations arose in the Aegean Sea: the Minoans. According to the writings of ancient Greek historians, the mythical king Minos governed from his splendid palace of Knossos on the island of Crete. The Cretan civilization has inspired a countless number of adventure stories, such as that of Hector, a young sponge-diver with dreams of setting sail on mercantile ship like the one his father captains. This is an unforgettable tale of adventure and discovery that blends history with legend.
